All BBs problems can be traced back to 1 thing
The fact that CBB started. The racism thing happend in CBB. lesser reality show came about because of CBB. If they had stuck to real BB. Things would have been much better.
|
well yeah I agree that the decline happened because of the Jade/Shilpa scenario. I have to admit I really enjoy CBB as well though
|
The show was dire by bb7.
|
its was jade imo
|
It's a bit simplistic to thrust the blame for BB's declining viewing figures onto the Jade/Shilpa thing.

To me this ruined big brother. The same with the next I think people had to vote to fake evict someone? Scaming bastards. Suprised dave from bb11 wasent the idea master of these scams. |

All big brother problems can be traced back another thing too. It's been on for 10 bloody years.

I think fight night was the start of it for the normal bb.
But i think when bb started trying to influence us who to like and started editing shows in favour of housemates they had down as the winner. It might of worked on the idiot hl show viewers...but it lost hardcore fans every year due to it...dave should of been a lot closer to josie...but he got ignored in and out the house by BB...but josie got footage brushing her teeth or just walking around in a hoody. |

BB fans are so delusional sometimes. The viewing figures went down because the show got worse. The Jade debacle actually got huge ratings for CBB, it was the abysmal BB8 that buried the show.

The Race Row was the start of the decline. Well, actually, as MrGaryy said it was BB8 - but it was because of CBB5 that that series was dire.
There have been a number of contributing factors to the decline alongside the awful production though, including: - So-called clueless 'fans' evicting entertaining housemates early and picking Godawful winners - The show becoming too politically correct [again, as a result of the Race Row] - As a result of that, the show gaining a whole new target audience - children, which is very evident in BB11. Jedward? Really? But yeah, it was mainly the production of the show post-CBB5 that killed the show and secured the axe. |

I really don't think it can. There were so many things built on top of each other, lots of bad luck and bad decisions. But shows don't last 11 years, dragging one out this long is quite a feat. Most (successful) series last 6-7 seasons, and that's about how long enjoyable Big Brother lasted.
I think the race row both saved and helped kill BB. It upped ratings and made the show "relevant" again, but it also sent it into trashy Jerry Springer territory. |
BB4 was judged as a bore, and so from then on there was a change of emphasis from the production to make sure that didnt happen again.
Unfortunately, by putting in the dregs of society and then protecting certain HMs by eviction manipulation, the interest waned and the decline therefore was inevitable. CBB5 was just the excuse CH4 needed to bin it. |

If it goes to FIVE, then I see slow death, similar to other shows that have switched channels. |

If only they hadn't put Shilpa into CBB5 :(

Jade made BB then slayed BB... nothing more to it.
